Karpathos
The Dodecanese island of Karpathos is located approximately halfway between Crete and Rhodes and also forms the southern boundary of the Aegean Sea to the open Mediterranean Sea. On Karpathos live only a little more than 6,000 inhabitants. Most of them certainly in the main village of the same name in the southeast, which used to be called Pigadia. The remote villages there make a very traditional impression. There are beautiful mountain trails and white sandy beaches, where a lot of water sports are practiced.
The ferry port on the island of Karpathos offers connections to the other Greek islands of Thira, Rhodes, Chalki, Kasos, Crete and Anafi, as well as to the ferry port of Piraeus on the Greek mainland. A total of 16 routes are offered here several times a day by the shipping companies Blue Star Ferries, Anek Lines and SeaJets.
Leros
Vacation without the sometimes perceived as annoying tourist boom you can make and enjoy on Leros. On the 75 km² island in the southern Aegean Sea live less than 10,000 inhabitants. The small, one could say idyllic village of Panteli is considered the most beautiful place on the island. Bathing at Panteli Beach is possible in the small bay at any time of the year. The Agios Isidoros Chapel is the insider tip on an island hike, as well as the crab church of Xirokambos in the south of the island. A day trip with the pirate ship to the small island of Arki is a must for your vacation on Leros. The excursion boat departs from Agia Marina in the morning and heads for different destinations every weekday.
The ferry port on the island of Leros offers connections to the other Greek islands of Agathonisi, Chios, Rhodes, Fournoi, Symi, Arki, Ikaria, Syros, Kasos, Limnos, Lesbos, Samos, Lipsi, Karpathos, Patmos, Kalymnos, Kos and Astypalea, as well as to the ports of Piraeus and Kavala on the Greek mainland. A total of 22 routes are offered here several times a day by the shipping companies Sky Marine, Dodekanisos Seaways, Blue Star Ferries, Dentur Avrasya and Hellenic Seaways.
